I have completed quite a bit over the past two weeks. Last week, I spent time on deploying our website, connecting the RPi and website to the websocket, and refining the communication between the two. I had changed the model to store the servo angle, so our device can alternate between 0 and 180 degrees. I had fixed a bug involving overpopulating the google calendar with pill notification events. This week, I spent a lot of time refining the load cell amplifier code, soldering the load cell amplifier, soldering both of the load cells, and testing out the load cells. Also, after Aneesha had reflashed the SD card, I had set up the SD card with github, dependencies, etc. Unfortunately, the readings off of the load cell amplifier are extremely noisy, and is prolonging the amount of time we expected this task to take. Aneesha and I are both working on fixing this, by exploring other force-measuring devices, as load cell amplifiers with a greater precision measurement will not arrive in time for demo day. Next week, I hope to get a lot of software testing done as well as pill dispensing testing. I will make multiple accounts, edit parts of each account, make sure the correct pill amount is dispensed during this testing. Further detail on all of the steps for how I will conduct this testing is listed in our design report section 7. I have included some of my commits below detailing my work.
